Most British National parks are on private land.

Their first aim is to protect the countryside and its life, since they are places where people live and work.

Their second aim is to encourage a love of nature and to provide opportunities for outdoor activities in the open country.

There are nine national parks in England, three in Wales and two in Scotland.
